Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. When checking a radical equation's proposed solution, I can substitute into the original equation or any equation that is part of the solution process.
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I can check inequalities by substituting 0 for the variable: When 0 belongs to the solution set, I should obtain a true statement, and when 0 does not belong to the solution set. I should obtain a false statement.
Each group member should research one situation that provides two different pricing options. These can involve areas such as public transportation options (with or without discount passes), cellphone plans, long-distance telephone plans, or anything of interest. Be sure to bring in all the details for each option. At a second group meeting, select the two pricing situations that are most interesting and relevant. Using each situation, write a word problem about selecting the better of the two options. The word problem should be one that can be solved using a linear inequality. The group should turn in the two problems and their solutions.
Perform the indicated operations. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\frac{a b}{a^{2}+a b+b^{2}}+\left(\frac{a c-a d-b c+b d}{a c-a d+b c-b d} \div \frac{a^{3}-b^{3}}{a^{3}+b^{3}}\right)$$
In solving \(\sqrt{2 x-1}+2=x,\) why is it a good idea to isolate the radical term? What if we don't do this and simply square each side? Describe what happens.
